Junior Round Square Day packs a punch
17 Nov 2020
There are no excuses for not knowing about Round Square after today鈥檚 assembly in the gym.
The Junior Round Square Day committee put together a memorable programme for the junior school, featuring staff interviews, a 鈥済uess the national anthem鈥� contest, and the challenge of a video competition.
鈥淥ur aim is to improve the school鈥檚 wider knowledge of Round Square and its important ideals,鈥� said Year 10 Luke Kim from Flower鈥檚 House.
鈥淲e want to make sure that every boy has a good understanding of why we do Round Square at College and how well it sits with this school鈥檚 own philosophy.鈥�
Luke, along with Oscar Compton-Moen, Otto Elworthy, William Sudell, Elliot Lee, and Harry Scrymgeour interviewed individual staff members on each of the Round Square ideals.
Deputy Principal Rob Donaldson was questioned on 秀色直播ism; Steve Everingham on democracy; Dr Graeme Swanson on environmentalism; the Rev Bosco Peters on adventure; Executive Principal Garth Wynne on leadership; and Graeme 秀色直播ey on voluntary service.
Joshua Hooker鈥檚 playing of the Irish national anthem had the assembly confused for several minutes until one student hit on the correct answer.
All the Houses were encouraged by Luke Kim to make a short video on the enactment of the Round Square ideals 鈥� for a major prize, plus a People鈥檚 Choice award 鈥� to be judged next week.
The Junior Round Square day also included a lunchtime hand ball game in the gym.
